About Niche
Niche is the leader in school search. Our mission is to make researching and enrolling in schools easy, transparent, and free. With in-depth profiles on every school and college in America, 140 million reviews and ratings, and powerful search tools, we help millions of people find the right school for them. We also help thousands of schools recruit more best-fit students, by highlighting what makes them great and making it easier to visit and apply.
Niche is all about finding where you belong, and that mission inspires how we operate every day. We want Niche to be a place where people truly enjoy working and can thrive professionally.
About The Role
Every year, millions of families start the school search process. Students wade through a sea of information and decisions to make, and unfortunately access to help hasn’t changed much in decades: it’s not super clear what your options are, and you might not feel confident that a school is right for you, or think you’ll be able to afford it.
Niche is on a mission to make researching and enrolling in schools easy, transparent, and free. Students need support choosing a school and paying for their education, schools want to find students who will thrive on their campus, and families need help supporting their students every step of the way. Niche helps ensure that it’s not just students in-the-know who get enrolled and can afford to attend.
As a Senior Product Manager for Growth, you’ll shape the future of school search at a mission-driven company while shipping product experiences that really make a difference. You will drive top-of-funnel conversion across web and mobile, maximize the value of our offerings to students and families, and deliver an incredible first-time user experience that generates high-intent leads and revenue. You’ll lead your cross-functional team to combine data, research insights, business goals, technical constraints, and customer needs together into a product vision and strategy, priorities and user stories.
We are a growing company in the early stages of an exciting transformation, offering the opportunity to own a lot of scope and lead your surface area to address real problems that affect the earning potential of millions of people. You will play a role in helping us decide how to scale our processes and adopt or build new capabilities such as product analytics tools in order to scale our impact. If you’re looking for a mission-driven organization with a lot of ownership and room to operate, this is the place for you.
